Preview: Darkwing Duck: The Duck Knight Returns

Let’s start off the weekend with something fun: a ten-page preview of Disney’s Darkwing Duck: The Duck Knight Returns, from Boom! Studios. This story has already been serialized in comics form, and the graphic-novel version is out next week. Enjoy!

Brigid Alverson, the editor of the Good Comics for Kids blog, has been reading comics since she was 4.

In addition to editing GC4K, she writes about comics and graphic novels at MangaBlog, SLJTeen, Publishers Weekly Comics World, Comic Book Resources, MTV Geek, and Good E-Reader.com. Brigid is married to a physicist and has two daughters in college, which is why she writes so much. She was a judge for the 2012 Eisner Awards.

Comments

This title really surprised me—it’s kind of the perfect all-ages book. Nothing dirty or unseemly about it, but smart enough to appeal to broad range of ages. Didn’t know the trade collection was coming out, but I’m glad to see you sharing it here!

About Good Comics For Kids

We are a group of librarians, parents, and writers--and most of us wear at least two of those hats--who started writing about kids' comics in 2008 because, well, nobody else was. We like everything from Literary Graphic Novels to blatantly commercial (but fun!) licensed properties. And we don't lump all ages together; we're smart enough to know that a three-year-old has different abilities and interests than a 13-year-old.

Our goal is to cover kids' comics (for readers from birth to age 16) with both breadth and depth, through a mix of news, reviews, interviews, and previews, and to be both accessible to casual readers and interesting enough for serious fans.
